Delhi ODI Against Sri Lanka Likely Moved Due to Stadium Renovation and Pollution
The first ODI between India and Sri Lanka, scheduled for December 13 at Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium, is likely to be moved due to ongoing outfield renovations and concerns over Delhi's high pollution levels. The Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) has requested the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to relocate the match. While the BCCI has not officially confirmed a new venue, the stadium's sand-based outfield upgrade aims to improve drainage but may delay hosting international cricket until 2027.
